We have a Symantec Endpoint infrastructure in our organization. Also, the individual computers connect to the internet through a proxy server.

Now, for some reason, the Endpoint client is repeatedly messing up the proxy address setting in explorer. If, for example, the proxy is set to be "10.200.1.10", then after a reboot, or just some time, it's changing to "a&.200.1.10" or "a0.200.1.10", and the user can't surf the web, making for lots of small, annoying support tickets.

Ok, the problem went away. Either some GPO setting that defined the proxy address was screwed, or the last update from symantec fixed this, i'm not sure (we did both at the same time). Thanks guys!
